README Excerpt

Give your scripts, browser extensions, and AI agents a direct line into your Obsidian vault via a secure, authenticated REST API. **Interactive API docs:** https://coddingtonbear.github.io/obsidian-local-rest-api/ Access your vault through the **REST API** or the **built-in [MCP server](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/)** — both interfaces expose the same core capabilities, so scripts, browser extensions, and AI agents all speak the same language.
